Description

ETW, located in Wisconsin, specializes in manufacturing both standard and custom tooling, utilizing a diverse array of tools within our machining departments. Each tool assembly is meticulously reproduced in our CAD/CAM software using user-defined templates to guarantee accurate part simulations. Programmers can swiftly program parts and select tools from the CAM library with just a click, eliminating the need to recreate tools each time they are required. Whenever feasible, standard tools are employed as they often remain installed in the machines, thereby minimizing setup times. Non-standard tools are reserved for unavoidable situations, which helps streamline the setup process. To enhance tooling efficiency and accurately monitor usage, ETW has created a proprietary software called Total Tool Management (TTM), which oversees the tools utilized across all our machines and projects. Every assembly and component is cataloged in a centralized database, providing the capability to search for any specific component or assembly for quick and convenient access. This innovative approach not only optimizes our tooling processes but also significantly improves productivity across the board.

Description

With our innovative cloud-based tool management solution, Tracker 8, field staff can conveniently access their tools, equipment, and supplies using a smartphone, tablet, or computer, as illustrated by the Tracker 8 order-entry interface shown on the left. Alternatively, for those seeking an on-premise option, Tracker 7 is designed to operate directly on your computer or within your network. If you're considering tracking tools through traditional methods like a log book, whiteboard, or spreadsheet, the section on Tool Tracking Questions and Answers provides a thorough examination of each method, outlining their respective advantages and drawbacks. Additionally, the article titled "How do spreadsheets and specialized tool-tracking packages differ?" offers a comprehensive analysis comparing the functionality of spreadsheets against dedicated tool management software, ensuring you make an informed choice for your tracking needs. This comparison can be particularly valuable in determining the most efficient system for your specific requirements.
